The New Treasure Hunt wrong choice

[scottact]

I LOVED this show!

[PhoneActress]

OMG she wanted to cry. I felt her pain poor thing :(

[khidak1]

Henrietta's still an idior for not taking the box!

[meyerj75]

Geoff Edwards sure had a angry look at his face when he waved the $1800 card up and said to Henrietta, "$1800 is a lot of money..."

[crowamonghens]

if this show were on today, they would not only show the contestant's disappointment, but have audience members come up on stage to point, mock, and ridicule the contestant.

[greenblue1979]

Damn Geoff is really rubbing it in her face LOL!

[tigermark64]

Sometimes Geoff would do just that making the contestant look like a real sucker. One time a constestant won some dough - no, not cash - but real bread dough.

[richie19190]

I know $1,800 is a lot of money in 1975, but when she saw the check, she looked like an absolute jackass.

[Josefin7]

They stop using the $500 Bill on July 14, 1969.

[msinthrop]

LA-OOOOO-ZERRRRR

[Elkahatchee9]

$25,000 in 1975 would be worth more than $400 billion today...shame.

[Elkahatchee9]

"I'm sorry bit the correct codes for the top prize were 00008935601, 00008876992, 000099890055, and Z4-00310390990. Sorry, but we have a lovely collection of consolation prizes for you. Have a great trip back to Tulsa!"

[lorilee32]

I loved this show as a kid. It was like a birthday party.

[TVLubber]

If I brought back this show, I would have a $1,000,000 top prize in one of 25 boxes, I would have men AND women play instead of just women (the only reason they forbade men to play is because they were too scared!), and I would have Ty Treadway host. Also, I would also have klunks that are less stupid. After getting klunked, he contestant would receive a $1,000 savings bond as a consolation prize.

[streetcarjay]

IF I was her. Even to this day. I'd still hang myself!!

[QuizGuy66]

Man, Geoff Edwards was pretty cold there!

[matchgame35]

how about showing the first time this happened

[matchgame35]

show the one where picked box gave up $2425 and won $25,000 from the 1976-77 season

[matchgame35]

this lady proabably hates herslef to this very day

[TATSUFAN]

WRONG MOVE LADIE!

VERY BAD DECISSION!

[crg64]

I loved this show.

[PtlRG1]

His name was Emil O torre

[HomeoftheGoodGuys]

I missed watching "Treasure Hunt". It was on WNEW-TV since I was a kid. Memories.

[PtlRG1]

Good trivia question: Waht was the name of the bonded security agent who hid the check before each show? If no one gets it Ill post the aswer soon.

[jeghm]

At this moment, I only remember that his first name was Emil.

[huggyface]

Emile Autouri.

[booboo900]

hey, in the '70s $1,800 wasn't really chump change

[redsqwirl]

When did the stop issuing $500 bills in American currency. I remember this show, but don't remember seeing $500 bills. They need to bring them back. We need them now to make paying for gas easier!

[Dannymac82]

I think they stopped issuing them and the $1,000 bill in 1969

[gwoneg2m03]

didnt these women saw the show? didnt they realize that $1,800 on a box was the check inside?

[Jamo1973]

She looked like she was about ready to die . Then again,she did pas up $25,000. Poor woman

[msinthrop]

HAHAHHAA beter you then me lady. If she didnt kill herself after this all i can say to her is>>YOU WERE SKA-RUUUUED!!!!

[Caesare60]

Thanks for the priceless "Treasure" clips.I use to dig

this show as a kid. Geoff Edwards,great at the art of

teasing. Definitely remember the gorgeous model Sivi

Avberg who spilt time introducing Chuck Barris on the

Gong Show.

[frankaholic]

I miss this show! I can't figure out why they don't show it on GSN. But that SOUND EFFECT when she loses is HORRIBLE! It's like a nuclear warning!

[NEPatriot]

Well, actually, that's the same sound played if the check is found and not sold along with balloons and confetti falling and a marching band song. To be honest I got scared by this as a little kid--now whenever that pops up I can't help but go crazy!

[bpot22]

I remember a classic episode of treasure hunt from the 80's verison. You remember that jamaican lady that won the $50,000 check. Does anybody have that video because I really want to see that video, cause it was funny as hell. She destoryed that box & geoff. Let me know if sombody has it.

[TalkingOrangutan]

oh so greedy for the quick go...

[WhatsAYak]

That would be Emile Autouri.

[pyzimber]

This show was so much better than Deal or No Deal. I love in this clip the little teaser for "The Rifleman - Next". Also, what was the name of the guy who appeared at the beginning of the show who hid the check?

[RogersRoyal]

The look on her face.. "priceless" .

As Homer would say "It's funny because it's not me.."

[Eyegetzraw]

Damn...you just took me back to my childhood...I used love this show...just goes to show that nothing is new anymore on TV, especially American TV...all the shows are remakes or ripoffs of overseas hits!

[Derrick2006]

What happened is that a contestant got a deal of over $200,000 and found out that the million dollars was in her case. I did watch that episode and it was something else.

[zacsz]

"OUCH!!!" is all I can say.

[ser710]

what happened in the show deal or no deal?
